Experience Hendrix Tour takes part of its inspiration from Jimi Hendrix's desire to bring
together ensemble casts of musicians with a wide variety of backgrounds, in what he dubbed "The Electric Church."
This concept is perhaps best exemplified when Hendrix gathered a group of musicians for Woodstock in August 1969,
taking to the stage as the newly named, Gypsy Sun & Rainbows.
In recent years, Experience Hendrix Tour has brought together a number of different artists,
both young and old, to celebrate the music of Jimi Hendrix. Our new Jimi Hendrix Webisode series
will bring fans closer to those who have performed with the tour.
Our second Websiode, features a candid
interview with drummer,
Chris Layton
Stay tuned for future Webisodes.
